Easy-to-prepare Cheesecake

[smitten]

I got the recipe from http://www.creamoholics.com

Na-curious lang akong i-try 'to last weekend kasi parang ang daling gawin.  I mean, I thought mahirap gumawa ng cheesecake but this one's really easy. I kept on bragging sa office na marunong na 'kong gumawa ng cheesecake. hehe.

[cocorocha]

Tried this, too. In fairness, madali ngang gawin.

how was it mga sis? pwede naman ilaban ang lasa?

[cocorocha]

ok naman. lasang cheesecake nga, in fairness. with a touch of chocolate.

i find it hard to look for cream cheese eh. san ba meron?

[mkasj_rn]

sa mga supermarket sis, meron yung philadelphia cream cheese :-) it's a bit pricey pero masarap siya!

[ms. independent]

sige, thanks sis! pero i'll try the strawberry or blueberry cheesecake not the chocolate. that's my favorite eh.

i'll try this mamya sana kaso pano yung "fold whiped cream into cream cheese"?

i'll try this mamya sana kaso pano yung "fold whiped cream into cream cheese"?

yung yung way pano mo ihahalo yun whipped cream sa chream cheese. di ba normally pag naghalo tayo, in circular motion. pag ifofold parang magdidig ka. starting sa bottom ng bowl then pataas papunta sa center. ganun lang ng ganun hanggang magblend sila. hirap explain eh. LOL

[kaiz]

^ah ok. ganun pala yun. thanks sis

This was a recipe from nigella lawson - i'm a big fan of her recipes! Ive tried this a week ago and it was so yummy! minus the cherry spread..plain cheesecake lang ginawa ko..sa first time kung pagawa sinunod ko lahat ng nasa recipes..kahit yung lemon..gusto ko siya pero mom ko hindi kasi may lemon so nung gumawa ako ulit wala ng lemon mas trip ko at ng mom ko..

i used the American Heritage Cream cheese cheaper kay sa philadelphia..

here's the photo:<a href="http://s30.photobucket.com/albums/c349/miming01/?action=view&current=2-2.jpg"

nasa 98 per box..sa ibang groceries like South nasa 78 or 80+..naka 2 boxes ako..may guide sa foil pack nito so easy to measure yung 10oz.


then sa heavy cream eto ginamit ko:

sorry a bit blurry..
naka 2 packs ako dito,ganitong size mismo

REMEMBER: better to use electric mixer kasi super sakit sa braso pag whinip mo siya by hand..

and for sisses who's planning to use nestle all purpose cream,di ko siya recommended kasi hindi niya kayang mag stiff na gaya ng heavy cream

kung wala po kayong springform okey lang gamitin yung ordinary round pan..pero lagyan mo na po ng cling wrap para pwede mo siya i-pullout pag gawa na..meron ako springform pero 10inch kasi kaya round pan na lang ginamit ko..

and also okey ng gamitin yung crushed graham ( sa mga walang food processor - like me )

at saka no bake siya! kaya super easy lang

here's the recipe


Cherry Cheesecake

Ingredients

    * 1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
    * 2 tablespoons sugar
    * 3/4 stick soft unsalted butter
    * 10 ounces cream cheese
    * 1/2 cup powdered sugar (confectioners sugar)
    * 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    * 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
    * 1 cup heavy cream
    * 1 (10-ounce) jar black cherry spread (recommended: St Dalfour Rhapsodie de Fruit)

Directions

Blitz the biscuits in a food processor until beginning to turn to crumbs, then add the sugar and butter and whiz again to make the mixture clump. If using graham cracker crumbs, you can use a bowl and wooden spoon to mix the butter in, with the sugar added.

Press this mixture into a 8-inch springform tin; press a little up the sides to form a slight ridge.

Beat together the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and lemon juice in a bowl until smooth.

Lightly whip the cream, and then fold it into the cream cheese mixture.

Spoon the cheesecake filling on top of the biscuit base and smooth with a spatula, put it in the refrigerator for 3 hours or overnight.

When you are ready to serve the cheesecake, un-mold and spread the black cherry spread over the top.

 i have tried making a blueberry cheesecake before pero ang hirap kasi binibake siya for 1 hr and more pa ata and ang tagal.. sabi ng hubby ko masarap kaso durog yung crust niya.  pero after 2 days tsaka lang naging ok yung crust kasi lumamig na... sabi ko sa susunod yung medyo di  binebake yung gagawin ko...

[gwacie]

[miming]
